Tressel's prior shenanigans

Story from back in 2004. Sorry if a repost.

Whoever the GT/Buckeye fan is needs to go ahead and accept that your sweatervest coach knows how to paint a picture of a nice guy because it keeps the cops off his trail.

So Tressel used kids at Youngstown state and his program was involved with a criminal. And he still uses kids and his program is still involved with a criminal that caused the whole scandal.

And this is the athletes he leaves behind, at least it sounds like his previous QB avoided jail for witness tampering when he helped the authorities.

Can the BDCOY award be nullified?

O'L, dooley. Who else?

Tressel is starting to remind me of my high school's old football coach, who preached:

1) God;
2) Family;
3) Country;
4) School;
5) Football

... and who practiced:

1) Football;
2) See #1

Great quote:

"C'mon," Myke Clarett said. "Tressel is acting like Sergeant Schultz."

If a Michigan fan can photoshop a tOSU sweatervest on Sergeant Schultz, he'd have a t-shirt winner.

Oh you mean the guy who Tressel was instrumental in bringing back to Ohio State to finish his degree just this past year, and helped him train for his current job as a professional running back? That Maurice Clarett???

Did he get his degree? I thought he left once again for a RB position.

I don't think he has it, since he left after freshman year that would be tough. He will take classes in the spring and summer I think...Not playing NFL.

Last year he left to play with UFL after he enrolled with Ohio State. Is he back at Ohio State right now? Regardless, he did get mixed up with crime after he enrolled with Tressel, just like the previous Tressel star getting mixed up with witness tampering.

he enrolled in summer classes, so I think he's doing that again this coming year. I think he goes in spring and summer, Ohio State is currently on the quarter system so he could probably still do 3 quarters of work and football.
